Body Lotion

Yes. The Body Lotion is an ultra-rich moisturizer made for dry, flaky or cracked-looking skin. Plant butters and oils such as Tucuma Butter, Cocoa Butter, Meadowfoam Oil and Camellia Seed Oil deliver deep, lasting moisture, while Aloe Vera Hydrosol helps calm the look of irritated or sensitive skin. Black Currant Seed, Broccoli Seed and Andiroba Oils add antioxidants and nutrients that support the skin's natural barrier. It absorbs quickly without a greasy feel, leaving skin soft and silky to the touch.

Yes, the Body Lotion can be used on your face as well as your body. Its plant butters and oils, including Camellia Seed, Meadowfoam and Macadamia Nut Oils, moisturize dry facial skin without a heavy, greasy finish. Apply a small amount to clean skin and avoid the eye area. Because it is scented with Palmarosa, Orange Peel and Rose Geranium Oils, test it on a small spot along your jaw first if your facial skin is sensitive.

The best time to apply the Body Lotion is right after a bath or shower, while your skin is still damp. Pat yourself dry with a towel, leaving a little water on the skin, then massage the lotion in. Damp skin takes in moisture more easily, and the Tucuma and Cocoa Butters help lock it in, so skin stays soft for longer. You can also apply it any time during the day when your hands, elbows or legs feel dry or tight.

Apply the Body Lotion first and a body oil second. Lotions contain a water phase, here Aloe Vera Hydrosol, that delivers moisture to damp skin, while oils are heavier and work best as a final layer that seals that moisture in. Massage the lotion into clean, damp skin after bathing, let it absorb for a minute, then smooth a few drops of oil over very dry areas. On most days, the Body Lotion is rich enough to use on its own.

No. The Body Lotion is lighter than a body butter, even though it is rich in plant butters. Body butters are thick blends of butters and oils, while a lotion combines butters and oils with a water phase, so it spreads easily and absorbs faster. Our Body Lotion blends Tucuma Butter and Cocoa Butter with Aloe Vera Hydrosol and plant oils, giving you the deep moisture of a butter in a non-greasy lotion you can use every day.

Yes, the Body Lotion is made for dry, flaky and cracked-looking skin, so it works well on hands, elbows, knees and heels. Rich Tucuma Butter and Cocoa Butter soften rough areas, while Andiroba, Almond and Grapeseed Oils help skin feel smooth and supple again. For very dry spots, apply it after bathing and again before bed, and wear cotton socks or gloves overnight to help the moisture soak in. If skin is broken, bleeding or painful, check with a healthcare provider first.

Yes. The Body Lotion works for men and women and for every skin type. It absorbs quickly with no greasy residue, so it is easy to use after a shower, after a workout or after time outdoors. The scent is light and botanical, from Palmarosa, Orange Peel and Rose Geranium Oils. It is a good choice for rough, dry skin on the hands, elbows and legs, because it softens those areas without feeling heavy or sticky.

Yes. The Body Lotion is a natural body lotion made with plant butters, plant oils and Aloe Vera Hydrosol, and it is scented with essential oils. It is alcohol-free and made without parabens, mineral oil, petrolatum or silicone. The Cetyl Alcohol in the list is a fatty alcohol that softens the skin, not a drying alcohol. It is 100% vegan and cruelty-free, never tested on animals, and it is made in the USA by Just Nutritive, a family-owned company in business since 2007. Every ingredient is listed on this page, so you always know what you are putting on your skin.

Yes. The Body Lotion contains Almond Oil and Macadamia Nut Oil, along with Cocoa Butter and other plant oils. If you have a tree nut allergy, check with your doctor before using it. If your skin is sensitive, test a small amount on your inner arm first and wait 24 hours. All other ingredients, including Tucuma Butter, Black Currant Seed Oil and Camellia Seed Oil, are listed in full on this page, so you can review them before you buy.

You can use the Body Lotion every day, once or twice a day, or whenever your skin feels dry. Daily use keeps skin soft and helps improve the look of rough skin texture over time. It layers well with our other skin care products, so you can apply it after the Turbinado Brown Sugar Body Scrub to moisturize freshly exfoliated skin. For the best results, apply it to damp skin right after bathing, when moisture is easiest to lock in.
